- Title:Advanced Netware/286 Version 2.0 Patch to
- Allow Two Internal Drives in an IBM PC/AT
-
- It has been discovered that the operating system for Advanced
- NetWare/286 2.0 will not support two internal drives in the IBM
- PC/AT. If booting with two internal hard drives is attempted the
- following message will appear:
-
- ABEND: Attempt to configure a non-existent disk
-
- This problem can be corrected by patching the NET$OS.OBJ file using
- the DOS DEBUG utility. The patch is made by placing the DOS
- debug utility in drive A and a working copy of the GENOS-2 diskette
- in drive B. Type the following:
-
- A>DEBUG B:NET$OS.OBJ (press the ENTER key)
-
- Now display the registers by typing
-
- R (and pressing the ENTER key)
-
- Find the value in your CS register (example: CS=14D4). Add 3000h to
- it (example: 14D4 + 3000 = 44D4). Now edit the address (44D4:237D)
- by typing the following:
-
- E44D4:237D (press the ENTER key and the following will appear)
- 44D4:237D 73.
-
- The patch is made by changing the value of 73 to 76. Type 76 so
- that the screen shows the following numbers:
-
- 44D4:237D 73.76 (and press the ENTER key)
-
- Now write the change to the diskette by typing the following:
-
- W (and pressing the ENTER key)
-
- Now end the session by typing,
-
- Q
-
- The patch is now complete. You must re-link your operating system
- with the newly patched OS object file. You must then use option 5
- in the INSTALL program to install the newly linked OS. (You may
- avoid installing all of the additional diskettes that option 5 asks for
- by typing a CTRL-C when the prompt for the SYSTEM diskette
- appears.)
